ak47mh Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Hi, hoping someone can help diagnose the above issue with my 2013 Ka. The orange bulb light came on and message on the dash said to ‘check stop lights’ and I noticed it was out on the drivers side when pushing the brake pedal down. I replaced the bulb today, but still the same error message on the dash and it isn’t working on the one side. However the bulb comes on if I put the fog lights on and I replaced with the original bulb which also makes it come on with the fog lights. So I think the bulb itself is okay. is it likely to be the brake light switch under the brake pedal? Just wondering has anyone else experienced this before I spend money doing this. Cheers, Ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanfp Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 If it comes on when a different switch is operated (which is what you are saying) I think it's more likely to be the BCM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RL123 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 More likely to be bad earth on the taillight cluster or corrosion in the multi plug on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
